In this work, we present a generic framework for designing on-board decision support systems for marine operations. We discuss different technologies and methods for obtaining and analysing data and providing relevant information to on-board personnel. In particular, we focus on combining and integr...

Compared to the multi-point mooring fish cage, the single point mooring (SPM) fish cage can spread out the accumulation of organic matter to prevent the local environment from being overwhelmed, and reduce the manufacturing cost at the same time. Thus, it has attracted many attentions recently. In t...

Research within marine aquaculture has either focused on technology (e.g. farming structures, autonomous systems, harvesting and transport technologies) or biology (e.g. biomass control, feeding process, fish behavior and welfare). Here, we present a computational framework allowing the integrated a...

This paper presents a numerical model intended to simulate the mooring force and the dynamic response of a moored structure in drifting ice. The mooring lines were explicitly modeled by using a generic cable model with a set of constraint equations providing desired structural properties such as the...

The objective of WP3 Fishery Pilot is to demonstrate how Big Data can boost the fishery sector. The Fishery Pilot focus is on two separate types of fisheries in two countries: Oceanic Tuna fisheries in Spain and small Pelagic fisheries in Norway (13 million tons). Six separate pilot cases have been ...

The Arctic ocean has been the focus of increasing activities in oil and gas, marine traffic and fisheries as the resources in the Arctic area becomes more attractive for exploitation. There have been several studies on the response of ships and structures in ice covered waters, mainly for oil and ga...
